Audit Committees in a New Era of Governance

Who Is Right for the Program

Audit Committees in a New Era of Governance is specifically intended for audit committee chairs and other committee members. Given the nature of corporate governance, however, it is equally beneficial for CFOs who work closely with their boards' audit committees. To maximize the program's impact through knowledge sharing and relationship building, attendance by several representatives from a given organization is encouraged.

"I currently chair the audit committees at Raytheon Company and Courier Corporation, and I am a member of State Street Corporation's audit committee. Serving on these three committees, I found the course to be very informative and worthwhile."
